It had too many notes

Explanation:

The 1984 "Amadeus" film portrays a vision of Mozart's life. During the performance of The Abduction of the Seraglio, José II - Romano-Germanic Emperor and Archduke of Austria - observed: "Too many notes, my dear Mozart." To which the author replied: "No more, Majesty, all are necessary" - a phrase that would never leave the mouth of an experienced courtier.
